Oscar Aguilar was posing with a handgun for a selfie that resulted in his death.

The 21 year-old veterinarians desires to take the most impressive selfies led to him borrowing a gun and aiming it at his head. Aguilar was unaware before the gun accidentally discharged that it was loaded. His neighbor, Manfredo Perez, heard the shot and immediately called police, he stated:

"I heard a gunshot, and then I heard somebody screaming and realized somebody had been hurt. I called the police straight away and when they arrived they found that he was still alive."

Although paramedics attempted to save Aguilar, he ultimately passed away on the way to the hospital. If anything his death is at least a reminder to treat a gun as a weapon and not a toy.
